Game of Throne "The Winds of Winter" (S6 - E10) [TV Review]

I didn't know what to expect from the finale of season six. In general the best episode in a season is actually the penultimate episode. In both seasons four and five the penultimate episode was the stronger episode.
Not this time. Oh, the Battle of the Bastards was quite good... but...

Game of Throne "Battle of the Bastards" (S6 - E09) [TV Review]

Bastard Fight! Everybody there's gonna be a bastard fight!

Well this was a very hyped up episode.
Maybe it even deserved the hype.
It was a very good episode from my point of view.

Game of Throne "No One" (S6 - E08) [TV Review]

She runs well for someone who has been gut stabbed.

Season Six has been a very strange season to watch.
It is the first season that we are really beyond the books, but at times we are also stuck back in book 3 and sometimes in book 5. And there are times when the season just seems to go where it wants with little care for what came before...

Game of Throne "The Broken Man" (S6 - E07) [TV Review]

This episode began rather oddly. No opening credits / music. Just straight into the episode.

I've not done this in a while.
But how about today we get a live reaction blog.

I'll be typing this as the episode airs. I doubt that I will include any time stamps.

Game of Throne "Blood of my Blood" (S6 - E06) [TV Review]

Well last episode had a haunting title, and this one is very very relevant to the episode.
The writers have gotten titles down.
Good.

Game of Throne "The Door" (S6 - E05) [TV Review]

Mother have mercy on us all!
The was quite an episode, was it not?

Game of Throne "Book of the Stranger" (S6 - E04) [TV Review]

This episode surprised me.
A lot happened, things actually have begun to move forward. Not everything... but enough.
And we keep returning to events from book 3...

Game of Throne "Home" (S6 - E02) [TV Review]

Well that was an epic episode. Second episode of the sixth season, and we're at last getting to events that occurred in... what, book three? Yeah... nice to know that was not forgotten.
Oh, yeah, and that big reveal that we all knew was coming...

Game of Throne "The Red Woman" (S6 - E01) [TV Review]

It is that time of year again. The time when we all know that "Winter is Coming."
(Why this is not part of HBO's fall line up I'll never understand. The marketing was already written.)
That's right, it is time again to play the game - the game where you win or you die - the Game of Thrones.

Spartacus [TV / DVD review]

I was having trouble figuring out what to review tonight, when I finally decided upon a TV show that ran from 2010- 2013 on Starz. I never saw it on TV, and in fact I never saw a single episode until after the final season was over.

Final Episode of Top Gear [TV Review]

As you may well know, not too long ago, the good folks at the BBC let Jeremy Clarkson go over a fracas he had with a producer. I'm not going to talk about that at all in this review. This review is for what I consider to be the Final Episode of Top Gear.

Star Wars Rebels - The Siege of Lothal [TV Review]

Since Star Wars Celebration Anaheim back in April I've been looking forward to the summer mini movie for season two of Star Wars Rebels and at long last, it is here.
So lets talk about it.

Game of Thrones "Mother's Mercy" (Season 5 Finale, Ep. 10) [TV Review]

Another season comes to a close. A sixth will come, this we know.
I'm finding it more and more difficult to begin these reviews.
Each episode is packed with so many events that at times one feel absolutely overwhelmed.
Oh, and before we even get to the 'read more' let me warn you.
This post will be filled with Spoilers.

Game of Thrones "The Dance of Dragons" (Season 5, Ep. 9) [TV Review]

I find myself not exactly sure where to begin.
This was a huge episode, better than Hardhome I think, but not by much. This season is certainly ending well. It is making up for the slow and banal middle I think.

Game of Thrones "Hardhome" (Season 5, Ep. 8) [TV Review]

This is the eighth episode of the fifth season, Hardhome.
This is also the most divergent episode from the source material.
It may also be the best episode of the season so far.

Game of Thrones "The Gift" (Season 5, Ep. 7) [TV Review]

 Welcome back to the seventh installment of this season's Game of Thrones review. This weeks episode was "The Gift," and like all of the rest in the season the title presages the last few minutes of the episode. So next week during the eighth epsiode, we can expect Hardhome to occur at the end of the episode.

Game of Thrones "Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken" (Season 5, Ep. 6) [TV Review]

Unbelievable? Unforgivable? Unfortunate? Unfaithful? I can go on...
At this point in the series, if you are a fan of the books, you are probably alternately scratching your head in confusion or cheering for what you hope is to come.

Game of Thrones "Kill the Boy" (Season 5, Ep. 5) [TV Review]

Every week I sit down with friends to watch the latest parade of deaths and poor choices that is the tapestry of Game of Thrones. I have a definite love / hate relationship with the series. There are some excellent excellent things about the series (show and books), and some downright depressingly awful things too... and no, I'm not talking about the parade of deaths. That is actually kind of cool for a book / tv series to be willing to just off and kill characters. I'll give props to GRRM for that. 

Game of Thrones "Sons of the Harpy" (Season 5, Ep. 4) [TV Review]

This week on Game of Thrones...
Many things sort of happen, stuff gets discussed, and a few (lots of) people die. So... no change there from the previous week really.

Game of Thrones "High Sparrow" (Season 5, Ep. 3) [TV Review]

Welcome to the third weekly review of Game of Thrones season five. Today's episode was "High Sparrow" introducing Jonathan Pryce to the cast. Next week we'll finally meet the Sand Snakes and maybe spend some more time in Dorn.
